The more I read on Roberts the less certain I am about his credentials. I have to admit I'm truly torn over this one. Do we value the Presidents right to his choice over our need for a more conservative court. God help us if we get another Souter. Why couldn't the President nominate a Sam Alito or Miguel Estrada. Oh well, que sera, sera.
The President and all politicians represent us. They should do what they promised and were elected to do. In this case, Bush promised a Scalia-like originalist. Breaking that promise with 55 Republican seats in the Senate, must result in severe consquences of the conservative movement wants to be remotely viable.
